Darling…
There is no meaning to be found beyond what I express. No amount of thought can figure out what was never spoken, expressed or done. Please accept what I say and what you see as the reality I live in. My heart is true.

Nineteenth Century New York writer Christian Nestell BoveeIt
is
the
passion
that
is
in a
kiss
that
gives
to it
its
sweetness;
it is
the
affection
in a
kiss
that
sanctifies
it.

Sweetheart…
Your words, spoken and written, have a way like those of no one else to dance lucid and vivid in my heart, mind and soul. I can close my eyes and literally feel you through what you express. Oh, my Darling… you love me the way I need to be loved…

Love…
…is gained by what we give; not what we get. However, over time the ‘give and get’ must have balance or else love gets smothered on one side. I’m grateful what we share is balanced on a fulcrum of genuine concern and understanding.

are of value.
